Thermal molding

When triggered by heat supply plastics develop special shaping properties, enabling a large spectrum of possibilities for your ideas and standards. Usually semi-finished sheet goods like rods or tubes are being used.

KIRSCH Kunststofftechnik specialises in (re)shaping transparent plastics with high optical quality. In our 4 different forming-furnaces we can process panels and components up to 3000 x 2000 mm of size. Special filtration technology, cleanness and experience contribute to form the transparent panels without dust inclusions.

Our furnaces are equipped with modern controls to target individually required heating and cooling curves for each plastic.

Thus, we can achieve not only an exact temperature during forming, but also control the cooling process accordingly to accomplish a nearly distortionless plastic.

We can process plastics two-dimensional, as well as three-dimensional.

Vacuumforming

The vacuum forming process, implemented with simple tools, is ideal for three-dimensional shaping. In modern thermoforming machines with a table size of 1000 x 660 mm up to 2000 x 1200 mm, both negative and positive moulds can be used.

Furthermore, we can process the components with our 5-axle-milling-machines afterwards.

KIRSCH Kunststofftechnik has specialised in lasering transparent or coloured plastics like acrylic glass, up to a maximum thickness of 20 mm. The advantage when cutting is a shiny edge which does not need to be polished afterwards.

We are offering a variable processing size up to 2000 x 1500 mm.

Following individual arrangements we are also able to process other plastics.

Our laser can be programmed using common files, making your ideas and wishes nearly limitless.
